Also known as the Navy Type Zero Reconnaissance Seaplane (not to be confused with the Type Zero Observation Seaplane), the Aichi E13A was the most numerous ship-launched recon seaplane of the Imperial Japanese Navy.
Entering service with the Japanese in mid-1941, it saw widespread service through the war in varying roles beyond reconnaissance and served with the French and Chinese post-war.
